Installation Guide
Verify that your minimum cabinet size is at least 18 inches and that your countertop cutout matches the 15-inch by 15-inch outer dimensions before dropping the unit in.
Apply a bead of silicone sealant around the underside of the extra-thick beveled mounting deck to ensure a secure, watertight top-mount seal against the countertop.
Secure the sink using the included mounting hardware, tightening evenly around the perimeter for a flush, stable fit.
Attach the rear-center drain assembly and matching cover, connecting your plumbing to take advantage of the extra storage space created underneath.
Care & Maintenance
Daily Rinsing Rinse the stainless steel basin thoroughly after each use and wipe it dry with a soft cloth to prevent water spot accumulation.
Gentle Cleaning Use a mild dish soap and a non-abrasive sponge or microfiber cloth to clean the wear-resistant surface during regular maintenance.
Avoid Harsh Chemicals Do not use steel wool, wire brushes, or harsh abrasive chemical cleaners, as these can scratch and dull the stainless steel finish.
Prevent Rust Spots Avoid leaving wet iron or cast-iron cookware sitting directly on the sink surface for extended periods to prevent surface discoloration.
Accessory Care Hand wash the included bamboo cutting board periodically and treat it with food-grade mineral oil to preserve its natural grain.
